Come enjoy the Oaks of Olivet

Description from the owner

At Oaks of Olivet, majestic oak trees, some believed to be over 400 years old, surround a charming cottage perfect for your next wine country getaway. Along with an orchard and large pastures, our property is surrounded by vineyards on two sides. We invite you to walk the acreage, view soaring hawks, scampering jack rabbits, clever fox and reserved owls. One morning you may awake to hot air balloons floating through the misty morning sky. We recommend spending an evening on our lanai, sipping a glass of wine while observing a starry show.

Situated on prestigious Olivet Road, our cottage is within minutes of seven award winning wineries. You will find restaurants, featuring gourmet menus typical of Northern California. While relaxing at our cottage, you will be merely fifteen minutes from the heart of downtown Santa Rosa. Healdsburg, known for its quaint character and numerous boutique shops, is just twenty minutes away. Additional destinations within a short distance include Sebastopol, Guerneville, the Armstrong Redwood Forest and Bodega Bay. will find restaurants, featuring gourmet menus typical of Northern California.

Additional Location Information

Setting is on a 6 acre parcel that you share with the owners, Loren and Michelle. The site is set back from Olivet Road with a privacy gate at the end of the driveway. Olivet road is not suitable for walking as it has no shoulder and the speed limit is 45 mph. There is a great walking path just a 5 minute drive from the site along the Santa Rosa Creek. We have gardens and an orchard that we share with our guests if they so choose. In the pasture we have 4 alpacas and 2 Nigerian Dwarf goats, fun for our young and young at heart to feed.

A Dream Come True

Left on 12/12/2012 for a stay in November 2012 | AdamG

I absolutely loved the Oaks of Olivet.

From start to finish, everything was fantastic.

Michelle and Loren were super-friendly and had everything perfectly set up for a lovely romantic getaway with my fiancée: check-in was a breeze; everything was clean; the cottage well-stocked with everything we needed (esp. privacy); and the owners gave us some great recommendations for restaurants and wineries. Having visited Sonoma several times before, I really appreciated being a bit off the beaten path.

I cooked quite a bit at the Oaks, and the kitchen was easy to work in, with great counter-space. The induction burner, electric fry pan / roaster, and four-burner gas grill more than made up for not having a full stove-top. I managed to pull off several recipes from a cookbook called Long Nights and Log Fires, and we ate wonderful food in front of the cozy fireplace!!!

The views on the property were simply stunning, and the changes in light throughout the day make it seem like a different view every minute. My favorite was the silhouette of the oaks in the fog. Breathtaking.

My 40th Birthday

We had a wonderful time!!! We were traveling with our 3-year-old and even she had a great time. We were 30 minutes from the Redwood Forest, 45 minutes from the coast and surrounded by many, many wineries. In fact, we spent 2 hours with the Churchills. They were so fun!!
The whole trip was an experience we will never forget. We will be heading back again in april of 2011.

Oaks of Olivet is a Gem!

Left on 06/07/2010 for a stay in October 2009 | Adam & Lisa M.E.

This was our first trip to The Oaks of Olivet and the Santa Rosa area and within the first ten hours of our stay we were already making plans for our return. This place is magical! The cottage is fantastic – everything we needed was right at our fingertips, with tons of attention to lovely details and many unexpected comforts. The dramatic oak trees and the picture perfect sight of the little red barn set against the wide expanse of fields, vineyards and mountains were amazing. We loved the private, outdoor shower – great for a steamy view of the stars – and sipping tasty drinks on the patio while swinging in the sky chair. Loren and Michelle's recommendations for restaurants and site seeing were spot-on. This ranks as one of our all-time favorite trips anywhere in the world. Thank you, thank you! We will be back very soon.

One of my favorite places

I have stayed in this lovely cottage numerous times and always love returning—in fact—I dream about it every time I leave! Not only is the location spectacular but the cottage itself is so sweet and provides everything you could hope for. Highlights from my visits include spotting a hot air balloon while sipping coffee on the back patio, late night grilling a feasts with friends, cozy moments curled up on cooler nights watching movies inside with the fire going and strolls through the pasture. I highly recommend Oaks of Olivet for relaxing sweet visits to Sonoma Wine Country.
